How Can I Get My Dad to Stop Drinking?
Question by : How can I get my dad to stop drinking?
He drinks a lot of wine and beer. Me and my mother asked him to stop this summer and he got to the bottle within two weeks. He gets drunk almost every day now. He doesn’t get violent, just hurtful and sometimes acts like he’s not there. He’s a different person when he drinks. He’ll usually drink a bit with dinner and then drink more in the kitchen without telling us and gets waisted. If anyone mentions it to him, he pauses a few seconds and tries to avoid the question as to if he drank extra or not. Always is the answer yes but then he gets passive aggressive and irritated.
Sorry that I posted it in the Religion and Spirituality just no one seems to be on the other subforums. And please don’t say “Find Jesus/Mohammad/Kristna” because he’s an atheist.

Inpatient Drug Rehab in NYC/5 Boroughs?
Question by jej: Inpatient drug rehab in NYC/5 boroughs?
I have a friend who is ready to check into a rehab for his drug addiction, however, he is on methadone maintenance and does not want to quit it. I was told by a rehab center in NYC that no New York state inpatient program will accept a methadone patient if they are on more than 40 milligrams, then a mental health clinician told me that is not true. Does anyone know of an inpatient program in the 5 boroughs or Westchester County NY that will allow him to be maintained on methadone? I googled but could not find much. Thanks.

How Does the VA Help Veterans With Alcohol/drug Addictions…?
Question by marybuko: How does the VA help veterans with alcohol/drug addictions…?
…my next door neighbor is a Vietnam Vet and has a bad alcohol/drug addiction. He said the VA has sent him to drug rehabs, but he still has a substance abuse problem…and probably also has PTSD. Is it because Vietnam was an unpopular war and soldiers had a hard time getting readjusted in America after returning from combat? Can the VA help the veterans just so much, and then it’s up to the individual soldier?

Question by Jeffry Helms: Philippines is Tore Back-from addiction-Are we wasting our time?
Every person I saw on photos etc.from typhoon are completely tore back with layered drug addictions. Toxic algae blooms produce gas that affect our weather and people that use put bad things in water that cause toxic algae blooms. Are the filipinos are going to sober up–are we just making a bad situation worse by helping them out–are the neighboring countries going to have more problems now with all this help? In america-I’ve seen some clean and sober filipinos but alot were in wannabe racketeering groups and foreign organized drug fronts etc .that caused great suffering in america–are we setting ourselves up for a fall.
“clncarplz” I waited to say something till after they had some kind of support–but YOU know and I know THERE TORE BACK BIG TIME , helping the filipinos will probably hurt more than help–ESPECIALLY them, china and korea has to “police” the area after the big junkie trash fecal blowout—-which costs millions of dollars just to keep their areas safe–IN FACT, they’ll have to drop this to a zoonotic conflict and outbreak from happening:
